dguet Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 At the corner of Fairview and Park Streets, a gigantic, metal, utility pole is going up. There are others in the area being installed as well. Does anyone know what they are for? No one I have asked knows for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trymahjong Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Just a side note here. Fifteen years ago, Avondale Civic Neighborhood on Fairview, was discussed with huge it's huge utility poles. There was all kinds of graffiti, trash talk all kinds of things scribbled on them. The 100 year anniversary for avondale was getting close and a board member contacted Centerpoint to point out this problem. Centerpoint came and repainted the poles from ground up - seven feet. you could have knocked me over with a feather . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trymahjong Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 District C council Kamin spoke about COH does not approve where these poles are located-state of Texas does. Also property owner was informed by Centerpoint of impending pole placement but then that person sold property without advising new property owners.

j_cuevas713 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Was there any update on this? I guess the city wasn’t able to overturn the star’s decision? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 They make a bunch of different styles depending on the area it's installed. They would have to make ours as giant oak tree or pecan tree. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
